What it is

Museum tags: History; Culture; Architecture

A Grade II* listed Georgian townhouse, originally built for a wealthy Huguenot silk merchant. Later home to Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, who created a small synagogue at the back of the house that still survives. The building went on to host the Museum of Immigration & Diversity, telling the stories of Spitalfields’ many communities.
The house is in need of major restoration, and has only rarely opened to the public in recent years. It is currently closed while funding is sought.


Coming soon.
